On GTK, many texts in the IDE do not reflect the --fontsize option. This includes main menu, most texts in the option panel as well as tabs of all windows except for editor ones.
noticed only using nimbus L&F
Thanks for clarification. I previously observed on all themes, but that was because I started NetBeans first and was switching them at runtime, while fontsize is not updated at runtime. This really is just a nimbus issue.
I'm seeing this on my Ubuntu as well in any GTK theme. AFAIK in the past we ignored fontsize on GTK themes, saying that fonts should reflect size set in OS. It seems that now situation is somewhere in the middle, I don't know why.
No plan to change the behavior. Closing.
